The guesthouse of our Green Mountain Getaway follows the same recipe as the main house. With its soaring roof lines and large windows, it feels equally as integrated into the surrounding landscape.

This beautiful home is an example of what can be achieved on a small lot. Interactive Construction was able to provide these homeowners with a Passive House that fit perfectly into their heritage neighbourhood, onto their narrow lot, and with their personalities.
There are huge energy savings built into the design of this home. In keeping with Passive House principles, the house is insulated everywhere to minimize heat loss meaning this house doesn’t require a conventional heat source. There is an extremely efficient Heat Recovery Ventilation (HRV) system that quietly manages airflow throughout the building and takes the heat from showers and cooking before expelling cool, filtered air. Triple glazed windows cut down on heat loss and are almost all openable to aid in cooling instead of a costly air conditioner.
Environmental considerations in this build go beyond energy savings. The decision to use prefabricated wall panels and roof trusses to cut down on waste and aid in site storage of lumber.
This house’s innovation comes from it being a modern design passive house that it somehow fits very well in a neighbourhood filled with heritage houses. We managed to squeeze a lot of house onto a postage sized lot and still have it feel roomy inside and in the yard.
And check out those funky stairs!
What the homeowners had to say:
Despite the huge and unforeseen challenges of building safely and efficiently during the 2020 Covid pandemic, especially on a very narrow lot, Interactive's exceptional crew and their team of skilled subcontractors delivered our dream house.

Modern Sideboard Wolfgang by Up Huppe. The Wolfgang dining collection embraces simplicity, minimalism and functionality - the three main principles that derive Scandinavian design, which is the source of inspiration for this collection. The sideboard features one open-storage section with 2 smoked glass shelves in it and three equally sized closed-storage - door-cabinets, each with an adjustable shelf inside. The doors of the Wolfgang sideboard close softly and quietly thanks to hidden self-closing slow motion slides. A matching Outline buffet is also available to complete the design of your dining room and provide even more storage space. The sideboard as well as the buffet are designed by Joel Dupras and feature sides that extend beyond the width of the solid base, creating a semi-floating effect. The Wolfgang dining furniture collection also includes dining table (available in 5 sizes) and dining chairs (side chair and armchair).
Available in a variety of finishes according to our color samples.
The starting price is for the Wolfgang Sideboard.
Dimensions:
Sideboard: W72" x D19" x H30"
Buffet: W48" x D19" x H42"

The 400 s.f. addition is located behind the main house and on top of a small extension. The addition creates a roof surface for photovoltaic panels that produce enough electricity to make the house net zero energy consumption. The roof is optimized to receive solar energy, resulting in the form of the addition, which houses a new child's bedroom, a playroom and children's bathroom.
